Has it really been nearly a month since International Women’s Day? It feels like ages ago and for Mike Jerrick of FOX29’s “Good Day,” it was definitely an unforgettable one given that his on-camera schtick landed him on “Last Week Tonight” with John Oliver, and not in a good way.
Soon after the episode aired, Jerrick was missing in action from “Good Day.”
He came back to the show this morning after a two week absence to the delight of Philly fans, who took to Twitter to celebrate his comeback.
Yooooo @MikeFOX29 welcome back playa…..You were missed homie!!! How was Florida?? @AlexHolleyFOX29 and @thomasdrayton did a great job of holding down the fort in your absence!

The good thing about being home sick today is I get to see the return of Mike Jerrick on Good Day! Missed his antics. Thomas did a wonderful job.

Jerrick was also spotted at the Philadelphia UNCF Mayor’s Masked Ball this past Saturday, to support former colleague, Sheinelle Jones, who used to co-host “Good Day” with him, before she moved onto the “TODAY” show. Celebrity photographer HughE Dillon captured this image.
